A Walking Grill for Berliners?

Thursday, September 24th, 2009

In the New York Times today is an article entitled “Grills With Legs Beckon Germans to Bratwurst” by Nicholas Kulish. The article features the Grillwalker, a portable grilling system for making bratwurst that is popular in Berlin, Germany.

A bratwurst is a sausage composed of pork, beef, or veal. The name is German, derived from Old High German brätwurst, from brät-, which is finely chopped meat and -wurst, or sausage. The very first bratwurst was made at the beginning of the 14th Century! More info here.

Teens Turning Green

Tuesday, April 21st, 2009

Tomorrow is Earth Day and I wanted to give a little love to some young teens in Dallas, Texas who are are not only passionate about being green, but are also advocates for sustainable products. They hosted an environmental fair to raise awareness amongst high school students about alternative options that are not only better for the environment but fashionable as well.

On Friday, April 17th, the Keen on Green Environmental Fair sponsored by Whole Foods Market was hosted at Hockaday School in Dallas, Texas from 4:00-7:00 p.m. There was a fashion show with casual clothing from Barney’s and vintage prom dresses modeled by students. There was also a Green Spa with organic and non-toxic skin care and make-up lines, a Green Car show, a speaker from both the national organization Teens Turning Green and the Dallas based Current Energy store.

To help promote the fair and increase awareness about the opportunities for “green” footwear, students of the environmental club made a video.

Is Flutter the new Twitter?

Wednesday, April 15th, 2009

Twitter has exploded onto the social networking scene.

According to Compete, a Web analytics company, Twitter is the third-largest online social network, behind Facebook and MySpace.  (Source: Putting Twitter’s World to Use, NYTimes.com)

As Twitter-mania reaches new levels, Slate V presents a mockumentary about a company that wants to take microblogging to the next level.

Whether you fancy yourself an elite member of the Twitterati or you’d rather just give your friends information on a need to know basis, there’s absolutely no denying the ubiquity of the hottest microblogging technology since someone posted a twitpic of sliced bread. However, many people are already getting bogged down by the thought of crafting lengthy 140 character posts. If only there were some way to tell other people what we’re doing faster. Well now there is … but there isn’t … but there is. Slate V’s mockumentary on a new application called Flutter gives the semi-absurdity of the Twitterverse an appropriate sendup. No matter how addicted you are to constantly renewing your status, you’re sure to get a good laugh out of this absolutely delicious satire.
